Let's Watch! The Phantom Empire (1988)

<p>Acomi and Turk182 put on their cargo pants, director's jacket, and pack their primitive language translation book and explore the mountain caves that lead to <em>The Phantom Empire</em> (1988). Directed by B-movie champion Fred Olen Ray, and featuring Sybil Danning, Jeffrey Combs, and Robby the Robot the laughs in this campy sci-fi film don't come from the intentional jokes, but from the things that aren't meant to be funny.&nbsp;</p> <p>After a cave dwelling creature wearing a necklace of uncut diamonds attacks a family at the park, a treasure hunter is hired to explore the mysterious caves and find the source of the diamonds. But, the amassed group is unprepared for a race of cave dwellers, scantily clothed primitive cave women, an evil, leather clad queen from outer space. Oh, and diamonds! The also find diamonds!&nbsp;</p> <p>Ridiculous at every turn, and laden with jokes so old and stale, a funeral was held for the typewriter they were written on. Join Acomi and Turk as they watch with glee and ask questions the movie has no intent on answering. <em>The Phantom Empire </em>(1988) is everything you come to expect from the director of <em>Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers</em>, <em>Alienator</em> (Let's Watch! Season 3, episode 29), <em>Bikini Frankenstein</em>, and <em>Wizards of the Demon Sword</em>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Prepare yourselves for the unknown horrors that lie within the caves, and Let's Watch! <em>The Phantom Empire</em> (1988).</p> <p>Acomi and Turk182, along the occasional special guest, provide running commentary of awfulsome movie and TV shows. &nbsp;The hosts select movies that either one, or both, have never seen. &nbsp;All jokes and comments are improvised. &nbsp;NO PREPARED JOKES OR COMMENTS!</p> <p>During recording, the movies are watched at a low volume and with the subtitles on. &nbsp;Viewers may want to turn subtitles on as well to enhance the viewing experience.</p> <p>So, cue up the audio, ready the movie, and hit play when we say so.</p> <p>Note: This video is the commentary recorded by Acomi
